Carli Suspension 2017+ Ford Super Duty Weld In Rear Shock Mount
In 2017, Ford swapped the Super Duty to a boxed frame. This was great news for Ford owners looking for better frame rigidity and longevity; unfortunately, it came at the cost of many Carli bolt-on upgrades. As the new frames are hollow, boxed steel, there were no more riveted buckets or shock mounts to which Carli became accustomed to grinding, drilling and replacing with stronger alternatives.
The goal was two-fold: to fit a larger shock AND run something stronger than the single-shear, pin-style factory Ford mount. Those who have been following Carli for a while knew they'd been working on Dominator Kit (3.0″ King Shock) since the platform was released. There are few things to compare with the on and off-road ride of a 3.0″ Diameter shock but the constraints of the new Super Duty wouldn’t make easy work of squeezing these giant shocks into the factory infrastructure; nor would the pin-style factory mount hold up to the forces these monster-shocks would apply to them.
Bolt-on wasn’t an option, unfortunately – however, Carli was proud to have accomplished this shock mount without requiring the customer to pull the bed. Installation is as simple as cut, grind, punch, clean and weld. After having both shock mounts installed on the test truck in under 2 hours; not bad for the MASSIVE strength increase these offer.
The ARE NOT intended for use with factory style shocks, or shocks with bushings. Carli includes the misalignment spacers to adapt any off-road race shock (I.E. – King/Fox) utilizing a 5/8″ Internal Diameter Uniball to the 14mm x 1.667″ mounting dimension. Although not required, these would made a fantastic upgrade to the E-Venture!
These will NOT fit the Pintop. The rear remote reservoir shocks of the Pintop kit have a 90° hose fitting that comes directly out of the top cap; this will contact the bracing of the shock mount.
